Feds Finally Release Flood Relief Money For Louisiana

Let me see if I remember this right from my history classes long, long ago. In the United States of America, we allegedly have a government that is "of the people, by the people, and for the people". Abraham Lincoln uttered those words in his famous Gettysburg Address.

Fast forward to present day America where our elected officials appear to be doing anything but what the Great Emancipator suggested our government do.

In South Louisiana, you've waited seven months for the bureaucrats to remove their spreadsheets from their backsides and actually offer funding to help people that really need it.

Thanks, HUD! It's been very kind of you to sit by the wayside watching citizens of our nation and our state deal with this devastating natural disaster. I bet when you were in school you were that kid that used to eat lunch in front of the kids that couldn't afford lunch.
